How to get licensed in Alabama

The Alabama Department of Insurance licenses insurance agents in Alabama. Here is the path to a resident license that covers health insurance, then the steps to sell Medicare and ACA plans.

  1. Resident license

    Get the right license line

    In Alabama, the resident license that lets you sell health insurance is Accident and Health or Sickness. The Alabama Department of Insurance issues it.

  2. Not required

    No pre-licensing course required

    Alabama does not require a pre-licensing course for this license since January 1, 2024.

  3. Pass the state exam

    In Alabama, insurance licensing exams are run by University of Alabama (Alabama Insurance Testing). You schedule your health line exam with them.

  4. Required

    Get fingerprinted

    Alabama requires fingerprints for a background check through Fieldprint, after you pass the exam. Results stay on file for only 30 days.

  5. Apply for your license

    Apply for your Alabama resident license through NIPR. You receive your National Producer Number (NPN), a unique ID that follows you to every state, during the application process.

  6. Every plan year

    Certify for Medicare

    To sell Medicare Advantage and Part D plans with us, complete the AHIP Medicare + Fraud, Waste, and Abuse course for the current plan year (AHIP updates it every year), plus each carrier's certification.

  7. Every plan year

    Register with CMS for ACA plans

    Complete Marketplace registration and training with CMS each plan year through the Marketplace Learning Management System (MLMS). Alabama uses HealthCare.gov, so this is the registration that lets you enroll Alabama residents in marketplace plans. CMS ties Marketplace access to the health line of authority on your resident license, so your Alabama license comes first.

  8. Keep your license active

    To renew, Alabama requires 24 hours of continuing education every 2 years, including 3 hours of ethics.

Also good to know in Alabama: Alabama requires proof of U.S. citizenship from every applicant, and a driver's license is one accepted document.
